The biennial event for the development of new Canadian musicals is back! Since 2011, In Tune has been the launching pad for homegrown hits like Onegin, The Best Laid Plans: a Musical, and Love Bomb, while remaining a celebrated destination for strengthening individual artists’ musical theatre practices.
This year’s In Tune features five public showcases of new musicals from award-winning artists; masterclasses from professional musical theatre instructors and New York’s acclaimed musical producer, Jack Viertel; panel discussions and conversations that connect artists across mediums; and high-energy events that celebrate the magic of musical theatre.
